FAMILY LAW & DIVORCE LAWYER
Experienced, compassionate family legal representation
Whether you are considering a divorce, are about to file for divorce, or simply have issues related to custody or adoption, we are here to help and provide you with the legal assistance you need to achieve your goals yours. Our attorneys are well-known and highly respected attorneys who have fought for hundreds of families throughout Minnesota.
Minnesota is a no-fault divorce state. What this means is that the law does not care if one person cheated another, or if a person is a “bad apple”. However, judges are people, and people often lean toward who they believe is the “good guy” when making difficult legal decisions. That’s why you need a highly skilled attorney like those at Cadem Law Group who can present your case in the best possible light to get every strategic advantage.
Divorce / Dissolution
Divorce and dissolution mean the same thing: an irretrievable breakdown of the marital relationship has occurred and one or more persons in the marriage wish to leave the marriage. In Minnesota, both parties do not need to agree to the divorce. At Cadem Law Group, we understand that going through a divorce is a stressful and sensitive time. We are here to ease your worries and anxiety about your life as you move forward. Divorces affect everything from child custody and parenting time to child support and spousal maintenance. A fair division of marital assets and debts will affect your finances moving forward. It is important to hire an attorney who will skillfully and carefully handle every detail necessary to ensure a happy and financially healthy life moving forward.
People across the state have relied on Cadem Law Group to meet all of their legal needs. We understand that every divorce is unique and we strive to work in a collaborative manner to reach an amicable resolution. However, sometimes settlement out of court is not possible and we are fully prepared to litigate if necessary. Cadem Law Group prides itself on having experienced and aggressive trial attorneys who thrive in the courtroom.
Custody of Children
In Minnesota, there are two types of custody: legal custody and physical custody. Legal custody, which is assumed to be shared jointly between the parents, determines who should make important decisions about a child. This includes decisions about education, medical care, education and religion. Physical custody generally means the place where the children primarily reside. A custody determination will affect your child for the foreseeable future. Parents across the state have relied on Cadem Law Group to guide them in custody matters. At Cadem Law Group, we truly care about your child and advocate for a custody determination in your child’s best interest.
Parental alienation
Parental alienation is an unhealthy reality in many custody and parenting time disputes. Parental alienation is when a child moves away from one parent as a result of manipulation by the other parent. Alienation can include false claims of abuse, reports to child protection, psychological manipulation, bad-mouthing the other parent in front of a child, and emotional abuse of children by making them feel guilty about their relationship with the other parent. Often, a child takes the side of the alienated parent. It is important to stop behaviors before they seriously and permanently damage the parent-child relationship. At Cadem Law Group, we have successfully tried cases involving parental alienation and helped repair parent-child relationships by modifying custody or parenting time based on parental alienation.
Domestic abuse
Cadem Law Group has represented countless clients across the state in Harassment Restraining Order (HRO) and Order of Protection (OFP) matters. Often, domestic abuse is involved in family law cases because one party has committed abuse against the other party or children, or because one party has made up allegations of abuse in order to gain a foothold in a divorce or custody case. All allegations of domestic abuse must be taken seriously. The effect of a Harassment Restraining Order or Protection Order can significantly affect a party’s rights. A party can be removed from their home, lose custody, have their travel restricted, or even lose their rights to own a firearm.
